Default Propeller advice, please.......

Okay, gonna try again. Anyone running this combo?:

[*]Aerosport IO-375, B1B, 195 HP, Pmags
[*]Hartzell C2YR-1BFP/F7497 prop (Van's standard on ordering form)?


I can't seem to find data on this combo. Hartzell doesn't list it either. Closest thing I can find is a 200 HP (don't know ignition type) that produces a placard for limited operating range.

If you use this engine / prop combo...I'd sure appreciate hearing from ya!

Thanks!

I have been flying with this engine / prop combination for around 3 years.

If I recall correctly, I asked Bart about any rpm restrictions and the answer was that it should not be any different than the normal 180 HP Lycoming (i.e. no rpm restrictions). However, I am not sure if any formal testing has been done.

Thanks,
Jason
